Reno Premises Liability Attorney

Premises liability is an area of law designed to protect the rights of
people injured on the property of another. Property, business and land
owners who make their premises available to the public are required to
provide safe and healthy conditions free from preventable harm. Their
failure to do so can result in accidents that may cause injuries or
wrongful death. Victims who can prove a property owner's negligence or failure to
maintain safe conditions can receive monetary compensation for their damages
with the help of a
Reno personal injury lawyer like the ones at our firm.

Elements of a Liability Claim

Premises liability suits can be brought against premises owners if there
is reasonable evidence to support a claim that negligence resulted in
an injury causing accident. For premises liability to apply, the following
elements must be established:

Defendants must possess the premises, such as a business, land or property

Plaintiffs must be visitors or guests to the property, whether invited
or licensed to be there

Negligence or a wrongful act must have occurred, resulting in injury or illness

As with
personal injury and
medical malpractice claims, establishing fault is the most important element. Proving negligence
depends on swift action and attentive attorneys. To establish fault, our
legal team can take the necessary actions to prove (1) the conditions
on a property were dangerous or hazardous; (2) the owner knew or should
have known about the danger; (3) the owner failed to fix or correct the
danger or to adequately warn a visitor.

Although these elements may seem straightforward, premises liability cases
are prone to many complications. For example, trespassers are not typically
covered by premises liability laws, but cases involving small children
who wander onto another's property can be exceptions. A competent
attorney can highlight a lack of precautions and warnings, violations
of health and safety codes and other failures to provide safe conditions
in order to bring cases to a favorable outcome.
